Summary : PostGIS JDBC Driver
|
Description :
JDBC is an database driver specification for Java. Like ODBC in the C world, JDBC allows java applications to transparently use different JDBC compliant databases without any source code changes. PostgreSQL, the database PostGIS is written for, comes with a driver that follows this specification. The purpose of the JDBC Driver extension is to give the PostgreSQL JDBC driver some understanding of the PostGIS data types (Geometry, Box3D, Box2D). Without this, the Application can only get byte arrays or strings (binary and text representation, rsp.) and has to parse it on its own. When registering this extension, the Application can simply call getObject(column) on the result of the query, and get a real java object that is modeled after the OpenGIS spec. It also can create or modify this objects itsself and then pass them into the database via the PreparedStatement.setObject() method.
